West Palm Beach, Florida-based Prodigious Jet Services has installed a BizjetMobile Iridium Certus satcom system on a U.S.-registered Gulfstream IV-SP. Iridium’s Certus satellite network provides worldwide coverage and download speeds of up to 704 Kbps.
The BizjetMobile satcom has a turnkey system and installation package price of $39,990 for U.S.-registered aircraft. Service provisions with the system include unlimited encrypted messaging using smart devices over Bluetooth, internet access, and smart data management “to prevent background app drain and reduce costs,” according to BizjetMobile. “This latest GIV-SP installation equips the aircraft with always-available in-flight communication tools for just $599 per month, without the multi-thousand-dollar bills associated with high-bandwidth satellite broadband.”
“Our partnership with Prodigious Jet Services ensures our customers receive expert installation and full system optimization from day one,” said BizjetMobile CEO Adam Chapman. “This GIV-SP is now equipped with the perfect balance of in-flight connectivity, privacy, and cost control.”
